Its aromatic nose opens with notes of stewed red fruit and liqueur-like cherries, complemented by delicate floral and spicy nuances.\n\nOn the palate, it is full-bodied and fruit-driven, with a smooth, rounded texture and silky tannins.

Approximately 75% are harvested by hand and 25% mechanically. Following gentle pressing under inert gas, the must is clarified and cold-stabilised at 5–6°C for several weeks. Fermentation takes place slowly at 14–20°C to preserve the wine’s aromatic character, followed by maturation for 2–5 years in oak barrels and large foudres, creating a balance between vibrant fruit and soft, integrated tannins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA versatile partner for Mediterranean and richly flavoured dishes, this red is well suited to tuna tataki, niçoise-style stews, pork tenderloin, duck blanquette, osso buco, stuffed guinea fowl, ratatouille and stuffed vegetables. It also pairs beautifully with Banon de Provence cheese. Serve lightly chilled at around 14–16°C. Decanting is not essential, but a brief 20–30 minute decant can help open the wine’s fruit and spice aromas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFounded in 1908, Les Vignobles Torpez is closely connected to the heritage of Saint-Tropez and has become an important ambassador for the wines of this celebrated corner of Provence.
